That was more on Brooks.

Bad publicity is still publicity! Fear the Deer!

These last couple of TNT segments here is exactly why Shaq needs to be canned. Monotone arguments, unfunny comments/gestures, and 6th grade level basketball analysis.

OKC is playing great basketball. Spurs are making HORRIBLE mistakes and they lack a true PG, but give credit where credit is due, OKC played better the last 3 games

did you EVER saw a Spurs game? Just in case you didn't, here's the full arsenal of Tony Parker:

1) Run as fast as possible (his best feature, he's damn good controlling the ball at fast speed, probably the best in the league)
2) Run in circles for 22 seconds and then penetrate. When it works, it's amazing. When he faces great D, he crashes against 5 guys
3) There's no 3

There's a reason why in the 4th quarter Spur's PG is Manu. Tony simply can't handle it and he can't run anymore after 3 quarters at full speed

Chris Bosh has missed the last couple weeks with an abdominal strain and now his masseuse is dead.

Strange.

Chris Bosh's masseuse dies

MIAMI -- A South Florida masseuse died at a hospital after collapsing at the Miami Beach home of injured Heat forward Chris Bosh.

A police report says the woman, whose name wasn't immediately released, went to Bosh's home Monday. Bosh has been sidelined with an abdominal strain.

Miami Beach police spokeswoman Vivian Hernandez says the department will conduct its standard death investigation, but there are no immediate signs of foul play.

The woman initially appeared to be well but suddenly collapsed. Fire rescue workers responded and transported the unconscious woman to a nearby hospital, where she died Monday night.

The report says a friend of the victim told officials she had survived cancer about a year ago. The cause of the woman's collapse and eventual death weren't in the report.

His house is going to turn into "The Grudge".

But seriously though, that's sad.

If OKC and Miami make it to the Finals... and Wade plays like this...

Miami is going to get absolutely destroyed.

He's been the stupidest player on the court in every playoff game I've watched him in this postseason. Just dumb decision after dumb decision on both ends of the court, it's seriously like he's got money on Boston.

As of late he's been no better than Monta Ellis. Type of guy who will get hot and have a big game every 3-5... but overall just inconsistent.

Last game he was downright bad.

the refs are just blowing block/charge calls left and right in these playoffs

Not saying he is the best player ever, because he isn't.

But is there any player ever that is as good as LeBron is at being basically a one man team? Magic, maybe?

Max Green · Post #2998 » by **Max Green** » Wed Jun 6, 2012 2:53 am

Awesome drive and layup, then block by Wade.

Some absolutely terrible transition D by Miami on misses here.

In terms of all around game, lebron is probably the best ever. Especially as he is now, much improved as a slasher/cutter off the ball and elite defender.
